Massage is usually defined as manual (by hand) manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, using strokes that include gliding, kneading, pressing, tapping, and/or vibrating. The best known forms are sports massage, which focuses on muscle systems relevant to a particular sport; and Swedish massage which uses long strokes, kneading, and friction techniques on superficial layers of muscles, plus active and passive movements of the joints.



Massage can help people relax, relieve aching muscles, and temporarily lift a person's mood. There is no evidence-based reason to believe that massage can provide any overall health benefit or influence the course of any disease.
